Flying in the Blessing

The venue for this World Swimming Championship is arranged in Qizhong Forest Sports City, which has just been completed in Shanghai. It is located in Maqiao Town, Minhang District, southwest of Shanghai. It covers an area of ​​about 508 mu, with a total construction area of ​​85,438 square meters, a construction area of ​​30,649 square meters, four floors above the ground, a height of about 40 meters, and a steel roof. The opening method is like the flowering process of Shanghai's magnolia, which is the first of the world. The central stadium can provide 15,000 seats, which can meet the needs of international large-scale events such as tennis, basketball, swimming, gymnastics, etc. There are 993 parking spaces outside the venue, which is the largest multi-functional modern stadium built in Shanghai in recent years. This World Swimming Championship is the first time it hosts such a large-scale world-class event.

At the same time, this World Swimming Championships is also the largest in history, with the widest range of participating countries and regions, and the largest number of contestants. In order to ensure that each team receives the best service during the competition, the event organizing committee has put in great effort, and has considered it very thoughtfully from the players' accommodation to food, and then to the arrangement of entourage personnel. The Chinese team's residence was arranged at the Huating Hotel that Li Tian had stayed at last when he came to Shanghai. The French team where Ilena was located, Australia, South Asia and other strong teams, so it has become a place where I have stayed at.

Where journalists from all over the world gather, you can often see groups of reporters searching for news materials in every corner of the hotel. As long as one or two well-known players appear, they will immediately become the target of these reporters. After several players of the Chinese team received such "warm reception" several times, all the players simply stayed in their rooms honestly. However, those foreign players who came from afar fell asleep after checking in the hotel due to the fatigue of long-distance travel, fell asleep in the room and fell down as soon as possible. Only a very small number of young players with particularly energetic walk outside.

"Can you come in?" After seven or eight hours of rest in the hotel, Irena and Xia Li had recovered from their fatigue after a long flight. At this time, a knock on the door sounded outside the door.

"Please come in!" As the door of the room was pushed open, a Chinese girl about twenty-three or four years old, wearing a pair of exquisite glasses walked in.

"Hello Miss Yilena! First of all, let me introduce myself. My name is Ye Xuan, which is a accompanying translator specially arranged for you by the organizing committee of this event. I hope my future service will satisfy you." Facing Yilena and Xia Li's puzzled gaze, Ye Xuan explained in very fluent French.

"You are very welcome, Miss Ye, please sit down!" Xia Li reacted quickly, and at the same time she could not help but leave a good impression of the organization of the event organizing committee. This time, Yilena was undoubtedly the most popular female player in the media. There were constant invitations from various media interviews, and she also planned to have some contact with Chinese merchants. If Yilena wanted to open up the market in China, she would definitely cooperate with them, but communication between them became a headache for her. Although she mastered English well, she could not reach the level of professional translation, and the differences in language understanding between the East and the West are still very different. Now Ye Xuan's arrival has been solved. Xia Li learned through understanding that Ye Xuan originally studied in France major in China, and later went to Paris for two years. After returning to China, she served as a full-time translation work for the China Olympic Committee, with outstanding abilities.

When Xia Li and Ye Xuan got to chat, Irena just interjected a sentence or two from time to time, and focused most of her energy on the TV in front of her. Learning Chinese for more than a month has made her very interested in Chinese culture. Although she cannot go out to experience it herself now, various Chinese TV programs can slightly satisfy her curiosity. In some sports channels, she can even see the scene of the French team just arrived at Beijing Airport this morning and she was interviewed by reporters outside the airport. This made her admire the efficiency of the work of Chinese news media.

"Hey! Isn't this him? Why is he in China too?" At this moment, the scenes on the TV screen made Yilena surprised. The news that the Chinese swimming team arrived in Shanghai was being broadcast on the TV. As the most popular figure in the Chinese sports scene, Li Tian has certainly been locked tightly on him. Although Yilena has only met Li Tian at close range, she was extremely impressed. And after the incident, she also learned some information about Li Tian in particular, and of course she would not admit her mistakes about the appearance of this Chinese boy.

"Hey! Miss Yilena, are you Li Tian's FANS? I didn't expect to find a soulmate here, I am also a die-hard 'Tian Misfortune'!" Seeing Yilena's performance with excitement in surprise, Ye Xuan naturally regarded her as another "Li Tian Misfortune", although Yilena herself is already an internationally renowned star.

"Miss Ye, what are you talking about on TV? How could Li Tian be in China now? Isn't the International Track and Field Gold League going to start the day after tomorrow?" Irena, who was far away in France, certainly didn't know that Li Tian had already been selected for the Chinese national swimming team and gave up the IAAF Gold League, which took the initiative to be the third stop, and instead represented the Chinese swimming team in this World Swimming Championships.

For all the world's strong swimming teams, the strength of the Chinese team can only be considered average. Except for some female players with outstanding level like Luo Xuejuan, other players really cannot arouse their interest. Therefore, the news of changes in the Chinese swimming team's personnel did not attract the attention of foreign media at all.

"Hey, Miss Yilena, don't you know? Li Tian is now the main player of the Chinese swimming team. He will represent the Chinese team in the World Swimming Championships that will start the day after tomorrow. He has voluntarily abstained from the track and field Golden League of this site." Ye Xuan is an absolute "sick fan" and has a very clear understanding of all the relevant information about Li Tian.

"You... do you say he is the main player of the Chinese swimming team? Isn't he the champion of the World Track and Field Youth Championships? Why..." Hearing Ye Xuan's words, Yilena and Xia Li next to her were all surprised and opened their mouths.

"That's of course. Almost everyone in our country knows this. Before joining the national team, Li Tian's freestyle level was already quite good. Now after another month of intensive training, I heard that his strength has improved very quickly. And now we have the opportunity to meet him. The Chinese team is also staying in this hotel now. If there is a chance, I must get his autograph." Speaking of this, Ye Xuan's eyes were eclipsed. This time she took the initiative to ask the organizing committee to transfer to the French team as an interpreter. A large part of the reason was for Li Tian. As a hardcore "Tian Fan", she has not been able to get any valuable souvenirs from Li Tian. It is a great regret for her. This time she has the opportunity to get close to her idol. Of course, she looks forward to making up for this regret.

Then Ye Xuan gave a detailed answer to all the questions raised by Yilena, and finally let Yilena and Xia Li understand Li Tian’s situation in recent times. Of course, the deeper they understand, the more surprised the two women, especially when they talked about Li Tian’s first personal sports foundation after returning to China, they made the two admire his courage.

"It's really impossible to imagine how a world track and field champion will perform in the swimming pool, and it will represent the national team to compete in the highest level event like the World Championships. This sounds like a fantasy!" Xia Li's surprise performance on her face did not dissipate for a long time. As a professional agent of a swimmer, she has a deep understanding of swimming. Although the Chinese team can only be considered a third-rate team in the world swimming world, Li Tian's ability to enter the national team itself shows that he has high personal strength. It is not uncommon for athletes in the sports world today, but she has never heard of such a large distance between choosing track and field and swimming.

"No matter what happens, as long as it happens to Li Tian, ​​there is nothing impossible. In China, he has another title - 'Son of Miracle', because he can always bring us unexpected results. I believe he will never be unknown for this World Swimming Championships." Ye Xuan of course praised his idol without hesitation in front of outsiders.

When Ye Xuan said that she was in the same hotel as Li Tianzheng, Yilena was excited. Although she had always denied Xia Li's teasing of her, Yilena really admitted in her heart that she had a good impression of this Chinese boy who was one year younger than her. Her sunny and handsome appearance, outstanding personal ability, and mature and steady far beyond her age. With her reputation and status today, Li Tian is attractive to any girl, let alone a Parisian girl known for her passion and romance.

"Okay, even if everyone lives in this hotel and is a contestant who participates in the World Championships, you will definitely be able to see him. It's getting late now. Let's go to the restaurant to have dinner. After getting off the plane, we have been empty until now." Xia Li and the others got off the plane and checked into the hotel and fell asleep, and did not wake up while having lunch.

"Hey! Xiaotian, what good thing is in your hand?" As the fourth floor of the Chinese team moved into the room where Li Tian and Wu Peng lived, Zhang Lin, Ouyang Kunpeng, Chen Zuo and Huang Shaohua also gathered here. During the one-month training camp, Li Tian and two other teammates in the relay team also became good friends. Chen Zuo and Huang Shaohua admired Li Tian's strength very much. Although Huang Shaohua was "snatched" by Li Tian's mixed relay position, he had no complaints in the national team with the highest strength.

"This is really a good thing. A chef specially developed a new nutritious meal recipe for me. How about you being interested in trying it? It tastes quite good." After checking in the Chinese team, the hotel immediately arranged a special chef to provide food services to Chinese team members. With the recipes brought by Li Tian, ​​the chefs in the hotel should be able to make these nutritious meals easily.

"Oh, then we have to try it out. Those who can be called good things by Li Tian should be extraordinary, haha!" Several friends were very interested in this and accompanied Li Tian to find the hotel's kitchen director. The director readily agreed to Li Tian and his request.

"Li Tian!" Just as Li Tian and several friends walked to the entrance of the restaurant on the second floor, a surprise and strange cry suddenly came from behind them.

"That's great, I finally saw you again!" A gust of fragrant wind blew, and a beautiful blonde girl suddenly pounced on Li Tian's arms.
Chapter completed!
